    The Press

    "... Thanks to a blindly compliant Congress and a tragically anemic press ..."

    It has ever been thus, but now it is much worse than in past days. The "press" wants to see a maximum leader who controls all the people. The fools in the MSM seem to think heaven on earth lies in that direction. I think that direction leads to hell in a hand-basket.

    The congress has just grown almost useless. Shall we elect horses to congress next?
